Aged

The movie gets a 3/10 only because of the premise which I like and the acting of Veronica, that's all it gets. There's many issues with this movie, and I'll cut it some slack as you know the budget wasn't great for this, however, this doesn't mean I'll disregard every problem that it has.

My worst complaint here is the audio mixing, it's terrible! I haven't seen a movie with such bad audio in a lot of time. 90s movies had better audio balancing than this! A character could speak from anywhere from the camera and they would be heard the same, be it next to it or far away, it all sounds the same.

The pacing was also a nightmare. I consider myself a patient person and even I had to skip through minutes of nothing throughout the movie. There's a chance that skipping 15 minutes ahead won't make you miss anything, and this doesn't mean anything good with any movie, even more so when the runtime is on the shorter side for this decade.

Overall, a disappointment with a lot more downs than ups, 3/10, would not recommend.

The thing these days seems to be slow-burning, character-driven plot lines. Certainly have that here as the two main actresses engage throughout. Nice photography, hits all the marks of horror. Predictable in parts but when you're going with a classic structure, that's just going to happen. Those moments came with a nice pay-off. Reality v. Nightmare situations keep you guessing.

This is a psychological thriller with strong female leads. Using a low budget and limited locations, the filmmakers made the most of it all with the photography. The film has a palpable feel that its creators love and respect the genre and the cast was having a great time.

I just watched Aged and I really enjoyed this movie. I'm not a horror movie kind of person but this was done right. The actors really threw themselves into their roles although I was a little skeptical in the beginning (too many signs for the main character to not be in that place) but as the movie progressed i was pulled into it. I did not know where it was going and i must say that was a good thing because many times you can predict the ending of a movie midway through but not AGED. This movie had me and I must say I did not expect the ending....totally had me shocked. I would watch this movie again. Great movie.

Non spoiler review: First thank you Harrow House. It appears to be a horror movie that has a very tight budget. So I was intrigued from the beginning to the end. If you expect the highest presentation this movie ain't it.

I love human behavior. I love to study people. Why would this girl/woman who appeared to be intelligent go with a complete stranger to a house 3 hours away?

She was not the least prepared to work with a dementia patient. The job paid a lot so why would they hire someone who was unsure of her ability to do the work?

There are many questions that need to be answered to make this cohesive. They have been covered in the comment section. The charming home had a "Weird" Vibe as did the old woman and Charles. The music added to the intrigue and I really wanted to know what they were up to?

I would recommend this movie to those who can look past the lower end of the spectrum films. I appreciate that not all films are Oscar bound I couldn't wait until the ending came so that I could determine what was going on. It was worth the wait, but this movie isn't for everyone. To me it wasn't as much a horror film, but a suspenseful one.

I was pleasantly surprised with what I got out of this film. Given the budget I never stopped being impressed by how well this movie was done. Any low budget film requires good casting and talented crew members and this one clearly has those elements. This is not a jump scare horror film, if you are looking for that you won't get it. This is a slow burn that the soundtrack does a great job of establishing the mood for throughout. The film is not without flaws but I sincerely believe this it could stand up to 90% of the big budget horror films currently coming out of Hollywood. Any true fan of horror films should thoroughly enjoy this one.
